Want to see what the Cape wineries have to offer… from the comfort of your desk?

South Africa’s winelands have become the first vineyards in the world to be covered by Google’s innovative StreetView, which allows users to ‘fly’ through cities and towns around the world.

South Africa is the first country in Africa to receive Street View from Google, following in the footsteps of more than 50 US cities as well as large areas of Australia, Japan and Europe that are currently visible in Street View.

Street View adds richness to the useful Google Maps, with its seamless 360° panorama of street-level images taken by the Google cars and trikes around the country.

In South Africa, in addition to the winelands, Google Street View also provides users with opportunities to view and navigate panoramic images of celebrated attractions including the Kruger National Park and Blyde River Canyon. Google Street View has also captured several 2010 FIFA World Cup TM soccer stadiums.
